How do I get my boyfriend to gain weight?

[Anonymous]

Before my boyfriend and I met and started dating, he was a six-packed beef-cake of sexiness.

And he noticed I was pretty "sexy" myself (a size 10, 5'8" then, and a chubbier size 12 when I met him).

We made a casual agreement to get back to our "sexiness" almost a year ago. Since then, I lost the weight and went back to a size 10.

My boyfriend, on the other hand, still is skinny in his shirts. :(

How do I convince my boyfriend to gain weight like he was before?

How do you make him gain weight? feed him non-stop. He'll gain weight for sure. But he won't be the six pack stud he once was :p

Work out with him, give him supplements when he workouts, and after a workout have protein shake chocolate flavor mixed with chocolate milk. In due time he will gain weight. If a guy has muscle and then looses it, he can gain the muscle he once lost much easier than a guy who never had the muscle in the first place trying to get the same built.

that's comforting to hear that he can gain the weight back more easily than before. his family is generally on the skinny side.

if we lived together, I would have already put him on a diet like that. :p

giving him protein will not make him buff lol. Anyway it's up to HIM if he wants to work out and gain weight, not you. if he's happy with the way he is, why ask him to do something that he doesn't want?

Unless he asked you to change weight for him, you don't really have any right to ask the same of him

basically he's encouraged me to lose weight while I've encouraged him to gain weight. I've lost weight, he hasn't gained any. I feel a bit disappointed in him. :\

Is he happy with how he looks? If so, I don't think you should make it an issue. Unconditional love, yo.

[Asker]

i love him regardless, but he said he would get back into shape too. that's unfair :(

[theydidntnameme]

why don't you tell him straight up? just try to be as neutral as possible though. tell him when you guys agreed to get your sexiness back, you worked your butt off for him and you thought he would do the same for you but he didnt, and it feels unfair to you :)

[Asker]

i've told him that already XD

[mistiro]

Just remember it's subtly combined to be implying anything or he will feel smothered!

[Asker]

so how should I be subtle? I only see him once a week. also, I let him know how sexy I think he was. his reaction: "im big enough"

start putting steroids in his corn flakes

[Asker]

seems legit...

actually, I'm thinking of just buying him a tub of powdered protein :\

[Habakkuk]

"seems legit" :D

but yeah, the protein's a good idea
